Today, he continues to serve Toughest Job! as a fire captain with an urban fire Since 1996 department in central NJ. designing a complete line of In January 2001, All Hands Fire Equipment was officially created. gloves for fire Initially, it started out as a hobby, with the owner operating from a small and rescue! desk, a file cabinet and a computer inside a small room in his home. The intention was to specialize in carrying products used (but hard to find) by the New York City Fire Department (FDNY). The name “All Hands” is taken from the common phrase “All Hands going to work”, used daily by the FDNY and other departments across the country. As the website grew and word of mouth spread, so did the popularity of the products that we carried. Our personalized and convenient customer service had the old “mom & pop” family-run feel, which we found to be very accepting by our customers. Keeping true to our roots and with the help of numerous retired and active members QUALITY TOOLS DESIGNED of FDNY and other departments, we continued to grow and expand our product lines – bringing to our customers the best products that EXCLUSIVELY FOR: Introducing – The Wellston Hook the industry has to offer. FIRE DEPARTMENTS • POLICE DEPARTMENTS RESCUE SQUADS Let All Hands Fire Equipment take your idea or special need, and make it into a tool or kit! Solutions for Firefighters Here’s what one satisfied • Safety customer has displayed • Escape on their website… • Rescue The Wellston Fire Department recently purchased halligan bars and K12 saws, but we couldn’t find ALPHA any good 3-4 foot hooks. There was always GLOVE a closet hook or a 4’ pike pole, but that just didn’t maximize the space in our compartments. So, with a little bit of brainstorming, and the help of All Hands Fire Equipment, the members of the Wellston Fire Department designed this tool. The tool, now known as the “Wellston Hook,” consists of a drywall hook on one end and a roof hook on the other. The total length is 40 inches, which is actually less than our original design EXTRICATION of 48 inches. It is the perfect GLOVE length for many tasks, easy to carry, easy to mount, and takes up less room than a normal closet hook. It is by far the most versatile tool we’ve used. None of us, or the guys at All Hands, have seen a tool like this. As far as we know, it is the only one of it’s kind! 4 Call us at 1-888-681-1009 ACCOUNTABILITY BOOTS & SHOES • Boards & Accessories • Boot Accessories • Tags & Accessories • Firefighting Boots PROPPER BDU USAR / HAIX 14” • Rescue/ Station Boots APPARATUS PRODUCTS RESCUE PANTS FIREFIGHTER • Tactical Boots • Thorogood NEOS APPAREL BOOTS • Uniform Boots • 5.11 Tactical Series • Uniform Shoes • All Hands Wear • Wildland Boots • BDU Pants • Women’s Boots & Shoes • Fire Department Apparel • Outerwear CARABINERS • Propper Military/Public Safety • Aluminum Quick Lock Wear • Aluminum Screw Lock • Screw Links BADGE INSIGNIAS • Steel Quick Lock • FDNY Ribbon Insignias • Steel Screw Lock ALL HANDS HIGH RISE ALUMINUM BADGES COMMEMORATIVES HOSE PACK CMC/GEMTOR BAGS POMPIER HOOK CORD REELS • Air Mask Bags • Equipment Bags CRIBBING & MATTING • Fire Proof Bags • Auto Cribbing • First Aid Bags • Cribbing • Gear Bags • Matting • Hazmat Bags • High Rise Packs & Straps CUTTING TORCH • Personal and Office Bags • RIT Bags DECALS • Rope Bags • 9/11 Commemorative Decals • Wildland Bags • Equipment Decals GEMTOR 541 NYC PETROGEN CUTTING • Flag Decals BATTERIES CLASS II HARNESS TORCH • Helmet Decals • Energizer® Batteries • Letters & Numbers • Flashlight Batteries • Pager Batteries DEFIBRILLATORS • Radio Batteries DETECTORS BELTS & HARNESSES • Chemical Detectors • Belt Accessories • Electric Detector • Class I Belts • Gas Detectors • Class II Seat Harnesses • Heat Detectors • Class III Full Body Harnesses • Residential & Commercial • Duty Belts Detectors • Gemtor (Class II) Harnesses • Harness Accessories FIRE DEPARTMENT EMS/FIRST RESPONDER EMT EQUIPMENT • Harness Belts OF NEW YORK, TRAUMA BAG • EMT Other Products • Ladder Belts Operational Reference, • Shears, Scissors, & Holster Sets • Other Harnesses Seventh Edition • Tools, Knives, & Cutters • Sport Harnesses • Evacuation Chairs • Truckmans Belts • Stretchers BOOKS & DVD’s EQUIPMENT RACKS • Books • Hose Racks • DVD Videos • SCBA & O2 Bottle • Racks Order online at www.allhandsfire.com 5 6 Call us at 1-888-681-1009 EYE PROTECTION FLASHLIGHTS cont. • ESS Firefighting Goggles • Garrity Life Lights • ESS Military Goggles • Gear Keeper • ESS Protective Sunglasses ESS GOGGLE / EYE SUREFIRE TACTICAL • Pelican Flashlights • ESS Rescue Goggles PROTECTION FLASHLIGHTS • Personal Safety Lights • ESS Sunglasses Accessories • Petzl • ESS Wildland Goggles • PMI • Goggle Parts & Accessories • Streamlight Flashlights • Pyramex Glasses • SureFire Flashlights • Traffic Lights FANS & BLOWERS • Ramfan Blowers & Accessories FOAM • Super Vac Blowers & Accessories • Foam Agents • Tele-Lite Blowers & Accessories • Foam Equipment • Tempest Blowers & Accessories GEAR KEEPER FDNY PRODUCTS GLOVES FIRE EXTINGUISHERS FIREGUARD FIRE EXTINGUISHERS • Extrication Rescue Gloves • Extinguisher Accessories COMMANDER GLOVE • Firefighting Gloves • Extinguisher Cabinets & Covers • Glove Accessories • Extinguishers • Mechflex Gloves • Other Gloves • Ringers Gloves FIRE HOOKS GPS SYSTEMS FIRE POLICE EQUIPMENT HALLIGAN / PRO BARS FIRE PROOF PRODUCTS HAZMAT FIRE TOOLS • Chemical Protective Clothing • Axe Sheaths • Containment and Absorbent • Axes HYDRARAM HYDRAULIC HALLIGAN / PRO-BAR Products • Bolt Cutters • Hazmat Detectors • Chimney Tools FORCIBLE ENTRY TOOL • Other Hazmat Products • Entry Key Devices • Forcible Entry Tools HEARING PROTECTION • Lock Breakers • Personal Entry Bars HELMET ACCESSORIES • Pocket Entry Tools • Shovels HELMET FRONT HOLDERS • Sledge & Mauls • Bullard • Tool Brackets • Cairns/MSA FIREFIGHTER ESCAPE HELMET FRONTS • Certified Escape Systems • Cairns/MSA • Firefighter Escape Components • D.

    MILWAUKEE FIRE DEPARTMENT Operational Guidelines Approved by: Chief Mark Rohlfing 2012 FORWARD The purpose of these operational guidelines is to make clear expectations for company performance, safety, and efficiency, eliminating the potential for confusion and duplication of effort at the emergency scene. It is understood that extraordinary situations may dictate a deviation from these guidelines. Deviation can only be authorized by the officer/acting officer of an apparatus or the incident commander. Any deviation must be communicated over the incident talk group. The following guidelines are meant to clarify best operational practices for the MFD. They are not intended to be all-inclusive and are designed to be updated as necessary. They are guidelines for you to use. However, there will be no compromise on issues of safety, chain of command, correct gear usage, or turnout times (per NFPA 1710). These operating guidelines will outline tool and task responsibilities for the specific riding positions on responding units. While the title of each riding position and the assignments that follow may not always seem to be a perfect pairing, the tactical advantage of knowing where each member is supposed to be operating at a given assignment will provide for increased accountability and increased effectiveness while performing our response duties. Within the guidelines, you will see run-type specific (and in some cases, arrival order specific) tool and task assignments. On those responses listing a ‘T (or R)’ as the response unit, the Company will be uniformly listed as ‘Truck’ for continuity. The riding positions are as follows: ENGINE RIDING POSITIONS OFFICER HEO NOZZLE FF BACKUP FF TRUCK RIDING POSITIONS OFFICER HEO VENT FF FORCE FF SAFETY If you see something that you believe impacts our safety, it is your duty to report it to your superior Officer immediately.

  • Firefighting in the New Economy: Changes in Skill and the Impact of Technology
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: FIREFIGHTING IN THE NEW ECONOMY: CHANGES IN SKILL AND THE IMPACT OF TECHNOLOGY Brian W. Ward, Ph.D., 2010 Directed By: Dr. Bart Landry, Department of Sociology To better understand the shift in workers’ skills in the New Economy, a case study of professional firefighters ( n= 42) was conducted using semi-structured interviews to empirically examine skill change and the impact of technology. A conceptual model was designed by both introducing new ideas and integrating traditional and contemporary social theory. The first component of this model categorized firefighters’ skills according to the job-context in which they occurred, including: fire related emergencies, non-fire related emergencies, the fire station, and non-fire non-emergencies. The second component of this model drew from Braverman’s (1998/1974) skill dimension concept and was used to identify both the complexity and autonomy/control-related aspects of skill in each job-context. Finally, Autor and colleagues’ (2002) hypothesis was adapted to determine if routinized components of skill were either supplemented or complemented by new technologies. The findings indicated that skill change among firefighters was clearly present, but not uniform across job-contexts. A substantial increase in both the complexity and autonomy/control-related skill dimensions was present in the non-fire emergency context (particularly due to increased EMS-related skills). In fire emergencies, some skills diminished across both dimensions (e.g., operating the engine’s pump), yet others had a slight increase due to the introduction of new technologies. In contrast to these two contexts, the fire station and non-fire non- emergency job-contexts had less skill change.
